five point seven.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Oh, good morning, Schmitty, Good morning. Welcome into your Tuesday.
Itchentley start to it, as well as temperatures hovering in
the mid thirties round most of West Michigan. I saw
this is the first official freeze warning of the year, Schmitty.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
I think our first and last, That's what I was
gonna say.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
And it's also our last because the growing season is over.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
You watched Elan Bacca last night.

Speaker 5 (00:36):
Yeah, yeah, girl, you are so smart and you make
us all sound so much better.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
When I heard the part about the growing season being over,
I'm like, man, I guess I didn't even think about it.
We're doing this in terms of farming. Can someone tell
my lawn please? Does that mean that it's in like
hard hibernation mode?

Speaker 1 (00:52):
And I never had.

Speaker 5 (00:53):
Everyone in my neighborhood is chopping everything down. Their gardens
are cleared out. We're there, We're done.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (00:59):
My neighbors across the street had the professional company come
in and put up Christmas lights yesterday.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
No kiddingp gosh, it's happening. Quick, guys, I'm not doing
anything in my yard.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
You get me wait done, y'all.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
I was like, I don't even know if I brought
in any plans.

Speaker 6 (01:12):
Leaves done, movies, music, and all the gossip in one place.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
It's the celebritiescoop on Star one oh five point seven.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Well, I can.

Speaker 5 (01:22):
Confirm there is no bad blood between Oscar winning actresses
Nicole Kidman and Selma hayek So. At Paris Fashion Week,
a video went viral showing Nicole seemingly scolding Selma before
refusing to pose for a photo with the actress and
actually pushing her away, sparking speculation the pair had some
kind of bitter feud, but it turns out they were

(01:45):
feuding with the photographers. They were swapping fashion advice after
posing alongside Katie Perry when they just got tired of
all of the rude calls for photos, and Insider said,
no issue. This is only a snippet of a the
that doesn't really represent the reality. It's nothing more than
them posing together and just getting tired of the photographers.

(02:07):
They were trying to have a friendly pow wow. They
were being surrounded by all angles and just wanted to go,
They add, Nicole's not rude at all. Super awkward, yes,
but not rude. Oh no, bad blood.

Speaker 3 (02:20):
How about the three of them together though, just happening
to be there, Katie Perry, Nicole Kidman, Antell.

Speaker 5 (02:25):
Well, that's what you see at all the fashion weeks,
that's all. Yeah, Paris, Milan, anywhere there's a fashion week,
You're going to see every walk of life and it's
like the biggest party for all these celebs. Lisa Marie
Presley's life and legacy celebrated at Graceland yesterday to honor
the arrival of the late singers memoir and we have
seen we were given a piece of things we've never

(02:46):
seen before. So the celebration is coming just days ahead
of the release of From Here to the Great Unknown,
a memoir. This is the book Lisa Marie was actually
working on when she passed, her daughter Riley, completing it
in the wake of her passing. Graceland showed so many
interesting pieces. There was VIP tours done yesterday, for instance,

(03:10):
the golf cart that apparently Lisa Marie drove around Graceland
with her twin daughters in There were sweet pictures from
Lisa Marie's childhood. Never before seen pictures of Elvis and
his wife like it was just so incredibly cool. Elvis
reportedly gave Lisa Marie the scarf that she wouldn't feel
left out when she couldn't make it to his shows
that was on display. The pictures are really cool, very

(03:32):
moving stuff.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
It's been a tumultuous year for Graceland after somebody tried
to hoist it, basically for the family.

Speaker 5 (03:39):
Finally, how would you feel about Hugh Jackman and Ryan
Reynolds teeming back up to host the Oscars? Rumor has
it that Deadpool and Wolverine are in talks to be
the twenty twenty five Oscar hosts. Now, of course an
absolute blockbuster win with their movie be more than one

(04:00):
point three billion dollars worldwide, but fans were equally excited
about the chemistry between the two. Apparently, the Academy of
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences looking to shake things up
with multiple sets of hosts throughout the night, and figure
Jackman and Reynolds would be eyed as kind of a
star ensemble of roasting hosts to tackle funnier portions of

(04:24):
the show.

Speaker 3 (04:26):
I think they'd be amazing man who doesn't want this interesting?

Speaker 5 (04:29):
Apparently, other stars including Will Ferrell, Amy Poehler, and Duayne
the Rock Johnson have been approached and maybe in talks
as well. If you updated all of your celeb scoop
at West Michigan Star dot com.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Sometimes does that get a good feeling?

Speaker 3 (04:45):
I'll always looking to put a little positivity in your
morning and feeling good on startling a fine points seven
Mac and Schmidti with you, and I have made no
secret of the fact that when I was young, I
wanted to be Indiana Jones.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
We all did.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
I mean, so cool that guy got to walk around
with the whip and that cool leather jacket. How could
you not want to be him? However, SCHMIDI, this is
straight out of a movie. In that movie is Indiana
Jones in the Last Crusade, Because in the beginning of
it you might remember this quote from Indy.

Speaker 4 (05:12):
So forget any ideas you've got about lost cities, exotic
travel and digging up the world. We do not follow
maps to buried treasure, and X never ever marks the spot.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Well, not so fast, Indy, because that wasn't true in
the movies, and it doesn't appear to be completely true
in real life either because the treasury in Petra Jordan,
who was made famous in Indiana Jones in the Last Crusade,
of course, that's the one with Sean Connery. They just
found a hidden tomb beneath one of the filming places
that they used in the movie Petra is that scene

(05:43):
that's famous for the architecture that's cut right into the
sides of mountains like that. Absolutely unbelievable. But archaeologists led
by doctor Pierce Paul Krisman, who apparently is Indiana Jones himself,
they just discovered an unknown tomb beneath Petra's treasury. Now
that's the place that millions of people go to every
year that you've seen there, and it's also the site

(06:05):
where in the movie they find the Holy Grail schmiddy.

Speaker 1 (06:08):
Well, get this.

Speaker 3 (06:10):
They pulled out twelve human skeletons, a whole bunch of
ancient artifacts that are over two thousand years old using
this ground penetrating radar, and one of those bodies actually
had a kept body that was holding a cuff.

Speaker 1 (06:24):
Just like the Last Crusade.

Speaker 5 (06:27):
Don't like getting haunted and dying early? Have you never
seen the King tut documentaries.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
This is considered to be one of the most significant
discoveries in Petra's history.

Speaker 5 (06:37):
Okay, so the Detroit Lions absolutely stumping on the Cowboys
on Sunday, but I think what happened in the locker
room afterward was even cooler. This video was just released
yesterday afternoon, Coach Dan Campbell giving out two game balls,
this time not forgetting his epic quarterback Jared Gobb as
well as Bebee safety Brian Branch. But after where everything

(07:00):
was done, Campbell was ready to bring it all in.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Jared had something to say, real quick, real quick, had
coach starf Rock.

Speaker 3 (07:07):
Now we're in Dallas, in his place where he played
game ball.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
That's right, Jared golf handing his game ball back to
Coach Campbell, showing that this team is like family. And
when you look through the comments on this video, it's
things like I'm a huge Cowboys fan. You guys gave
us the biggest butt whooping I've ever seen, and I
can't be mad losing to a team like you a

(07:36):
situation like this.

Speaker 2 (07:37):
Kudos to Detroit. You guys are doing it right. Is
it really cool? Got it up on our stories at
West Michigan Star.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Yeah, I didn't know Jared Gov had quite the potty
mouth like that.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
He seems to. It's a straight lace, nice.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
Guy, and I want to get stoked.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
You get stoked, very cool. It comes at you a
couple times a day. We always want to share something
awesome with you. We'll do it again coming up at
nine twenty this morning. Here on starweell five point seven.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
Movies, music and all the gossip in one place.

Speaker 4 (08:02):
It's the celebrities gup on Star one oh five point seven.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
Well, it has begun six brand new lawsuits against Ditty
being sued by both men and women who claim he
sexually assaulted them. These are from Tony buzzby the Texas
attorney we've been talking about, who says he's representing up
to one hundred and twenty alleged Ditty victims. Four of
the six that have filed so far feature male accusers.

(08:28):
In one suit, a man says he was working for
Echo Clothing back in two thousand and eight when Ditty
was marketing his Sean John brand. He says he ran
into Ditty and his three bodyguards in a stock room
at a Macy's when he was pistol whipped and brought
to his knees before being assaulted. Another man claims he

(08:48):
was working security for one of Ditty's white parties, where
he consumed a drink laced with GHB and was forced
into a van before he was assaulted. A fourth lawsuit
from a man who says he was only sixteen when
he was invited to did He's white party in nineteen
ninety eight. He says they moved to a private area

(09:08):
to talk before he was assaulted and then told don't
you want to break into the business, this is how
you do it. These are harrendous stories. They go anywhere
from nineteen ninety five to two thousand and twenty one,
and this is very interesting. Macy's and Marriott were also
named as co defendants in these suits. Yesterday evening, did

(09:32):
He's legal team denied the allegation, saying in court the
truth will prevail that mister Combs has never sexually assaulted
anyone adult or minor man or woman.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
I mean, it's obviously been something that's been going on
for decades, Bitty, and it's something that I feel like,
as the public is going to be working their way
through for decades. I feel like this is what you're
going to be watching documentaries about in like twenty fifty
in one.

Speaker 5 (09:57):
Hundred and twenty alleged vicary. This has only just begun.
Jamie Fox getting very emotional as he returned to stage
following that hospitalization last year for an unspecified medical emergency. Remember,
this is kind of the stand up that's not actually
stand up where he wants to tell fans exactly what

(10:18):
went down. So he posted a bunch of still images
to his Instagram showing him getting visibly emotional, writing, God
is good as I post these pictures. My heart and
my soul is filled with nothing but pure joy, he thinks. Atlanta,
that's where he did his first show. I haven't been
on stage in eighteen years, but I needed the stage
and the audience that was made up of nothing but

(10:39):
pure love. And that's what you were. When people ask me,
is this a stand up comedy show? I say nope.
It is an artistic explanation something that went terribly wrong.
But thanks to the great people in my life, especially
Piedmont Hospital, enabled me to come back, be on stage
do what I love the most, and I'm ready to
talk about it. Of course, that Netflix special one more

(11:01):
Chance in Evening with Jamie Fox is coming out soon.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
I kind of think it's cool that his special sort
of mirrors his action abilities, right, Like, the guy doesn't
do just drama or comedy or just action. He does
it all, and he's doing it all in his special
sounds one of be incredible.

Speaker 5 (11:14):
Finally, did you see what happened to Olivia Rodrigo last night?
She had a concert stop in Melbourne, Australia when she
started running across the stage trying to hype up the
crowd and.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
Fell through a hole.

Speaker 7 (11:27):
This sounds painful, fun Okay, okay.

Speaker 5 (11:47):
I mean her entire body goes through. It looks like
at one point she smashes her head. She's falling, but
she said, I'm all good, telspans and reassures him she's
totally okay.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Bounce back on stage to finish out the show.

Speaker 5 (12:01):
But it was pretty wild. Got it up with your
scoop at West Michigan Star dot Com.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Good morning to you. It's Mac and Schmidty And oh
yes you are not kidding. We all have been there
before where you've locked yourself out.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
Yeah, maybe it's your house, maybe it's your car.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
I had an exceptionally embarrassing moment the other night, completely
locked out of my house. Worse, I realize it as
I'm on my way to work Saturday morning. So I
spent the weekend solo. I think I talked about that
last week, which means Chris was at home, the kids
weren't home. It was just me and I made the
huge mistake Friday night of watching the new volume of

(12:36):
Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix by myself in the dark. So
I locked my house down like Fort Knox like stuff.
We don't normally locked because like we're well, gosh, I
don't know who's listening right now. We lock everything and
it's super safe, so don't try to break into my house.
But you know, we're in this safe, beautiful neighborhood now,
and you know, for instance, we don't always put this

(12:59):
stick in the sli door. We have like a keypad
on our front door, but it just controls the dead bolt.
We never locked the bottom door knob part. I'm going
around after the Alien episode and everything. I am locking
every window, every door, the slider. I'm reinforcing this stuff.

(13:21):
And so I leave Saturday morning, and I thought to myself,
no worries I'll like the keypad lets me in on
our front door, completely forgetting I had locked the doorknob
as well to shut the door, and on my way out,
I'm on my way out to Holland and I'm going, oh,
I literally have no way to get in my house.

Speaker 6 (13:39):
Did you?

Speaker 5 (13:41):
I was like, that bottom knob is locked. I have
locked and dead bolted the door from our garage in
which was also dumb because you can't get into our garage.
The stick is in the slider door. All of our
windows are locked, and I'm going, that's gonna be what
fifty hundred bucks to have a locksmith come out and
let me into my house. And the worst part, the

(14:03):
worst part is having to call Chris and asking like,
do you know anyway I can get in? Because I
watched Unsolved Mysteries and I was too scared to be
by myself. So I've locked absolutely every inch of our
square footage. What is just the most embarrassing way you
have locked yourself out? Because I posted this on Facebook
and I felt so much better.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
I mean, really did.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
I have unfortunately locked myself out of the house many
times throughout my life, but maybe the one that sticks
out the most to me is locking myself out of
my car and my house. The first time I was
ever at it, the first hole Michelle and I ever
bought in Las Vegas. We pulled up to it in
our car trailer behind us all of our stuff. First
time going to the house, and I get out with
the car running, closed the door and it's locked. I

(14:48):
have no way of getting into our new house. I
have on a no way start. The cat is in
the car and We're sitting there and I'm just trying
to think of ways that I can get in, whether
I can do it with a coat hanger or what.
As my cat walks over to the window and hits
it to the you know, the automatic roll down. After
about fifteen minutes, our cat solved the problem for us.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
Thank you, sir. I've got to give a shout out
to Jeff.

Speaker 5 (15:12):
I paid the gas station manager to give me a
ride home because I thought I locked my keys in
my car at the gas station, went home to grab
my spare keys, and on the way back found my
car keys in my left coat pocket.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
And did not say a word.

Speaker 5 (15:26):
I can't by far, this is the worst one I've
ever heard, Sally, I got locked in an outhouse on vacation,
scared my family.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
With my screams. It turns out I needed to.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
Pull instead of push. Sally, you sorry, pretty So Stalky,
Yes she is.

Speaker 3 (15:51):
But when you said, you know, you mentioned possibly losing
your little man, you said it in a way that
I would expect mothers to be like a sobbing, bawling, crying.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Because their little boys growing. I'm pretty close.

Speaker 5 (16:02):
I've held off because of the non waterproof mass scara.
Because Will called me Bro for the first time the
other day. No, it's Bro. I have not hit bruh. Yeah,
I think bruh would have led me to sobs. But
I came out of nowhere. We're sitting in the living
room and I don't even remember what I said, and

(16:23):
Will goes, Bro, that's so ridiculous, and I stunned. Stop
and I see Chris's head whip and he just gets
this like smug look, and I go, did.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
You just call me bro? Buddy? It's like, yeah, mom,
so we call people at school. I was like, you're
only six. I thought I had more time.

Speaker 3 (16:42):
Pretty so Stalky, just wait till your other little ball
is sas starts calling you about your first name.

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Oh, I'm sorry, we already passed that. Yeah, that was
like her fourth word.

Speaker 6 (16:52):
Yeah, movies, music and all the gossip in one place.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
It's this the celebrities goop on Star one oh five
point seven.

Speaker 5 (17:03):
Well Date Night Last night in the Big app Ole,
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey out again in New York
watching the Yankees play some post season ball power. Couple
was seated in a VIP suite at Yankee Stadium as
the Yanks played the Cleveland Guardians in Game one of
the Alcs. Not surprising, Baseball is pretty excited to see her.
TBS broadcasted the game showed the couple multiple times, while

(17:27):
they made quite a few appearances on different social media
accounts across the MLB. But this comes ahead of Summit
TikTok Swifty salutes thinking she is about to grace us
with a surprise album on Friday. So here's some of
the Swifty evidence. Last week, Sewn Mendez pushed back the

(17:47):
release of his new album, which was set for an
October eighteenth release this Friday, citing his team and I
decided to give themselves a bit more time to bring
new inspiration and ideas to life. Then Shortly after that,
Joe Jonas, who was also supposed to drop a new
album this Friday, announced he would be pushing the release

(18:08):
back by a week. In fans' minds, it's not coincidental
two huge stars would be pushing highly anticipated albums back.
It could only mean one thing that maybe there was
someone bigger that's going to be dominating the charts, and
they believe that's Taylor Swift. They're also pointing to the
fact that October eighteenth is the same day Taylor kicks
off the final leg of her Aras tour in Miami.

(18:30):
They think the date alone is enough to speculate that
Swift is going to be dropping some new music.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
New music, or is it going to be one of
the releases of her you know, my Taylor's version albums,
because isn't that still in.

Speaker 2 (18:42):
The works too well?

Speaker 5 (18:43):
They some think maybe reputation maybe, but they think a
bigger one would be brand new music because that's what
she would use for a huge tour star. Or we're
going to get an aristour live album. Ah yeah, well same.
All right, let's go to Diddy News now. As I
said earlier, the floodgates have opened six brand new lawsuits

(19:05):
filed yesterday by Tony Buzzby. That's the Houston attorney who
says he's representing up to one hundred and twenty alleged
Diddy victims. Four of the six filed so far feature
male accusers. Now, these are incidents that have gone down
between nineteen ninety five and twenty twenty one. One suit,
a man says he was working for Echo Clothing when

(19:27):
Diddy was developing and marketing his Sean John brand. Him
and three body cards stopped this guy in the stock
room of a Macy's and assaulted him. Another suit comes
from a guy hired to work security who believes he
was slipped a laced drink before did he forced himself
on him.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Even a man who says he was.

Speaker 5 (19:46):
Only sixteen when he was at Ditty's white party in
the Hamptons back in nineteen ninety eight and was moved
to a private area before he was assaulted. Diddy appleedgedly
saying don't you want to break into the business, this
is how you do it now. Diddy's attorneys have issued
a statement saying mister Colmes has never assaulted anyone adult
or minor man or woman, and they've also added that

(20:09):
this attorney Tony Busby is using all of this as
a huge marketing maneuver, and they still feel very confident
in court everything will be proven alive.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
Yeah, I will see about that. However, it's wild to
think that some of the multi billion dollar companies that
just got pulled.

Speaker 5 (20:28):
Into Vision, Macy's and Marriott named as code defendants in this.
And don't forget the big thing we've been talking about.
This attorney Busby says he has huge, huge names in
Hollywood that are also connected with this. Finally, Kelly Rippa
getting divorced, Well, if you've seen that trending, hold up,

(20:49):
not the case. But during Live with Kelly and Mark,
she did talk about something called gray divorce and admits
her hubby Mark and Suelo's got pretty defensive about it.

Speaker 8 (20:58):
Do you know what gray divorce are? Now?

Speaker 3 (21:01):
Well, you came, you came home, you came home from
the trip, and you're like, I read this this amazing article.
I go tell me.

Speaker 8 (21:07):
But I didn't say amazing. I said fascinating, fascinating, fascinating.

Speaker 4 (21:11):
Article, and I go, what's it called? She goes, the
Astonishing Rise of Great Divorce. I'm like, do tell.

Speaker 8 (21:19):
So it's these are people that get divorced, you know,
in their fifties. Like it's like after or later, like
when when you think that you're beyond you know, you're
beyond the vulnerability portion of your life where you're like,
I'm mayor I've been married for one hundred and eighty
two years. He's not going anywhere.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (21:37):
The couple who have been married since nineteen ninety six
assured viewers they are not headed for Splitsville. They still
have a lot in common because a big part of
great divorce empty nester syndrome. And of course they just
sent their last child off to you. Yeah, yes, yes,

heard from Sophia, who gave the answer I would have
gave with that little tiny bell that you see on there.
But what else you got for us?

Speaker 1 (23:49):
A basket of baskets? I'll be honest.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
It's two ages at which you really want a basket
on your bike. And they are extremely young, and then
you're extremely old.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Because in both.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
Cases, the practical nature of being able to bring your
stuff with you outweighs your need to look cool like
you have when you're a teenager.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Getting that bike baskets the top answer. I want to
go my eight year old in the vaccinium too. Heck yeah,
what's your eight year old's name?

Speaker 6 (24:20):
I see Brooklyn?

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Brooklyn.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Well, I hope you and Brooklyn and the crew have
a blast. You guys are going to Ringling Brothers in
Barnum and Bailey.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yay, thank you, you are.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
So welcome, and we'll do it again tomorrow, hopefully gonna
get your family in eight fifteen. It's a battle of
the sexes here on Starlino five point seven. Good morning
to you. It's Mac and Schmidty. And it goes without saying.
Kids say the darnedest things. I'm pretty sure they made
shows about that, but they often could be informative. I
love it when your kid comes out with some random

(24:51):
fact that you know they learn from one of the
cool books they're reading, or something random in school, and
you had absolutely no clue that it was true.

Speaker 5 (24:59):
I learned more about rocks in the last year and
a half of life, and I had a good bever guest.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
So we just went to Napa Valley over a long
weekend there that included going to San Francisco for a day,
and we decided to pack in all the touristy things,
including going to Alcatraz. Schmidty the famous prison that's on
an island just off the coast of San Francisco there
and it's been a museum for you know, decades and
decades now, and we were doing Alcatraz at night.

Speaker 5 (25:24):
I really wanted to do the ghost tour. When I
was there, it was oh bummed.

Speaker 3 (25:27):
Such a cool experience if you ever get the chance.
But right beforehand, we were calling our kids to say
good night, and we told him. They're like, hey, we're
gonna go check out Alcatraz. First off, both of my
kids knew what Alcatraz was and was like, oh man,
I read about dad in school and Connor goes, that's
where Machine Gun Kelly's from. And I go, I go,

(25:48):
you mean, like the terrible rapper guy, not terrible, and
he goes. He goes, no, the guy that he's named after.
And I go, what are you talking about? And he goes,
machine Gun Kelly's there.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
Dad.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
I'm like, I don't think nobody, but that's interesting. Yeah,
I'm an idiot.

Speaker 1 (26:04):
He's right.

Speaker 3 (26:04):
I get off the boat and the very first thing
they tell you is the most famous inmates, and it's
al Capone and that Machine Gun Keller.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I mean, I didn't know MGK named himself after that.
I didn't either. No clue.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Just surprising, weird, random fact for my son that knows
something about famous mobsters that now apply to his music.

Speaker 5 (26:20):
To be fair, I feel like iHeartRadio app was on
and it was like GK.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Also, did you know.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
What is something that you maybe learned from Will or
from Sophia? He got any good ones?

Speaker 2 (26:32):
Not that I could name because I don't know the
names of the rocks.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
I just think about see you say rocks and that
all the time. Think of like dinosaurs when I was
a kid, because that was what I would just come
out with as random facts. I was super big into it.
But the thing is that it was the nineties, so
nobody had Google, nobody had smartphones, so you could just
lie to your parents about something that sounded smart and
they'd kind of have to agree with you. Mom, did
you know that stegosaurus's had eight toes on each of
their feet?

Speaker 1 (26:55):
What is he going to say to that? And that
might not be that's not true obviously, but you got
no way of proven that.

Speaker 5 (27:00):
Hey, Tobin, thanks for dropping a message on our Facebook.
Her eight year old said jack O'Lanterns used to be
carved out of turnips, and I googled it. That is true,
And Tobin, I have a meeting today and I'm about
to break that one.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
Out sometime because I get a good feeling.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
Stell a fine point, Savin and Smack and Schmidty. Let's
brighten things. Yeap what you got today, schmide for feeling good?

Speaker 2 (27:21):
I have a huge thank you once again.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
Do you guys know how lucky we are to have
the Meyer Heart Center in West Michigan. I didn't talk
about it yesterday, but so many of you sent me
wonderful messages. My dad had kind of emergent heart surgery
yesterday morning. It was something that they caught a few
days ago. Luckily, his incredible team and made sure to
come right here to Grand Rapids, and he is in recovery.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
He's doing pretty well.

Speaker 5 (27:47):
But I know a lot of you were sending me
prayers and well wishes to pass along to him. And
it's just so incredible to know that healthcare in West
Michigan is as top notch as it is. Doctor Yasa,
his incredibly gifted surgeon who caught this and then when
they got in realized there were a couple other issues

(28:08):
and just fixed the whole thing. I wish I could
explain it to you, but a medical degree is not
my forte. To Trisha, his incredible nurse, that we got
to meet yesterday. Just a thank you from the bottom
of my heart. He comes to Grand Rapids to get
his care. Despite living and lansing, they come here and
we've had quite a few visits at the Meyer Heart Center,

(28:29):
and this one obviously wasn't planned, but hopefully maybe out
today or tomorrow, sometime in the next few days. And
it's all because of the incredible care. So to the
team at Meyer Heart Center, and again to doctor Yasa
who sat down and explained every single thing to us
in dumb terms because we're not with medical degrees. I
can't think, can't think them enough. And to each and

(28:51):
every one of you, because I read through dozens and
dozens and dozens and dozens of messages and dms last night,
which was really really helpful. You all should be good
and a big thank you man.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
That's incredible.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
I mean, so Dad's on the end, he's doing, you know,
as good as he can be. This morning. How's mom doing.
She's all right, she's all right and thinking about you guys. Definitely, yeah,
say some prayers for sure, schmiddie mind personal today too.
This is a celebration and it's for my youngest brother,
my brother Luke, who has tried on several different careers,
you know, starting through college and moving his way through

(29:25):
insurance and healthcare and all sorts of things, but he
has always loved to cook, and several years ago he
decided he wanted to kind of follow his passion and
took a job at a restaurant and just decided he
was going to try and work his way through things. Well,
after four years, he has just been named head chef
very nice at Toast in Ferndale, This awesome breakfast in

(29:46):
lunch spot that's over there. But yeah, he has been
working for this title for years and now gets to
say if you would like incredible meal over there at
Toast in Ferndale. Just as for Chef Luke, Chef Luke
is there to grdwork man. Really cool to see. You
love when somebody that you care about takes their passion
and then turns it into something more than that. So
I'd love to share these things with you and love

(30:08):
